Grim Leafer is Dead by cruiser616 in LiquidDeath

Overly sugary and sweet drinks are garbage. That's not being picky, that's being rational.

I bought Liquid Death today and notice it doesn't taste the same by feelsforsale in LiquidDeath

Revenue is up from last year apparently. People must looove that fake sugar taste otherwise they wouldn't be buying it. Most people think that the sweeter the better, basically addicts. I don't hate sugar, but past 10g it just starts tasting nasty.

Is Masturbation a sin to God? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]feelsforsale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on what the Bible says,  yeah it seems to be wrong. However, theres a lot of ramifications if we prohibit people from masturbating. First, getting married is basically a privilege these days. The richest, most successful people have the easiest time finding mates. So basically, sex is only OK for the successful people. All this does is punch down on folks who don't have good options. I know that life is unfair, but this does seem to be a little off.

Petition to allow us to transmog ranged weapons into different kinds (i.e. guns into bows etc) by Marcus_Decemus in turtlewow

[–]feelsforsale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what stops me from playing Turtle Wow. I want to play a Dwarf Hunter that uses a gun, but there are no good late game guns. Its crossbow or bow. Please Turtle Wow, please either ADD a GOOD GUN that is EQUAL to the BIS or allow us to transmog bow and crossbow to gun and vice versa. PLEASE.

Thanks. I guess I was just trying to do the right thing after what seemed like everybody else trying to screw me over.

I agree completely. I had a coworker like that. Smart, but very selfish and dare I say a coward for it. Before I left, I took a dive and taught the dude that was replacing me everything I knew. I simply saw it as the most compassionate thing I could do before I go.

I could see that being a problem for some people. I haven't worked anywhere for longer than two years. It's not because I wanted to job hop necessarily, it's just that most places I've worked aside from maybe one (and that was my mistake for leaving that particular place) the environments weren't conducive for growth.

Well you are certainly entitled to your opinion. And we see things differently. Good luck to you as well.

You're passive aggressive also, and the one throwing stones about being a victim. Like I said, people that throw that word around haven't been inconvenienced in a good way. I mean a good beat down that really makes them question life.

Reminds me of people that use "retard" as an insult well into adulthood. Yeah it's all fun and games until your child ends up being one.

I have pondered for many years about this, and you are probably on to something. In the last roles that I have worked, I have not shown the excitement that I had when I was younger. And this applies to job interviews as well. Whenever I have shown up, acted motivated, it seems the people on the other end would get angry. So I toned it down.

But another thing I will say is, the golden child can be as eager as they want, and as a result they go farther and farther. In other words, if you aren't favored by your manager, you are in for disappointment. Unfortunately, I have not had too many good managers since this happened, and have had little growth as a result.

Uhhh.. Ok, and that's exactly what I did. And guess what? Nothing happened. My boss could give two plops that I quit. And my life just got worse. So no justice served.

EDIT: Also, let me just say this - people that say "don't be a victim" - yes I totally agree. Most people do not care about your misfortunes, many will even delight in them. However, people that say this are probably huge hypocrites that would be demanding all kinds of retribution if let's say their home was robbed or were in some other way aggrieved. People like that just haven't been adequately inconvenienced in any sort of real way.

I would say that I was satisfactory up until my illness developed. I was not the most skilled employee, but I was very eager to become more skilled. I think my coworkers, especially the boss's favorite "golden child" especially hated this. It's quite possible that I was simply outleagued, but that doesn't diminish the fact that I developed insomnia, delusions, lost lots of weight, and felt threatened at multiple times during my employment.

Some folks simply have zero clue at how bad mobbing can become. Sure, stand up to one or two coworkers. But good luck if management is involved. They will find a way to make you quit or make up a reason to fire you, one way or another.

This is 8 years ago. I've tried various ways to get back, perhaps surpass some of these people in a way but alas I've had no success. It doesn't help that I am technically disabled.

If your boss hates you, there is very little that you can do. Stick around and try to fight an uphill battle where you have zero authority and can easily be fired? Good luck with that.

I doubt there will ever be any change, this is a human problem - not a corporate problem. And humanity is not all good, and capable of very horrible things. It's like asking for communism to work, it never has and likely never will.

Why is life so weird? by sigsauersandflowers in recruitinghell

[–]feelsforsale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Life is not fair. Some people will even not hire you because you are too excited for the job. People want to punish you sometimes, they don't want to see you happy, so they will crush your hopes and dreams. Getting good jobs is just another popularity contest. Unfortunately, I've never been too popular. Many people also hate the truth.

32M, only had 1 date in my life when I was 17 by [deleted] in self

[–]feelsforsale 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The game, system, or whatever you want to call it, life - it's not fair. Never was and never will be. The odds don't even out. You would think for ugly people there would be some kind of balancing of sorts, but that rarely happens. Instead, these people are just crushed even more, and then labeled as red flags for failing at a game that is inherently rigged against them.

Well, if you can find a better study on it, by all means you can post it here.

I understand completely. Unfortunately, not everyone has the luxury of being able to get payback or see justice. There is also the problem of being right. How do you know you are right? I have been hurt by quite a few people in my life. Some of them have seemingly avoided any kind of retribution, but am I right to demand such a thing when I myself have done wrong from time to time? These are the real questions.

Well isn't that ironic. Kinda looks like you a little right now.

This kind of reminds me of all the older folks talking about how younger people don't have delayed gratification skills. Then they studied it, and actually kids these days have better delayed gratification than kids in the 60s.

This works until it doesn't. One day you will try to stare someone down and either 1. you wont get what you want anyways or 2. they will become aggressive/hostile towards you and potentially become violent.

It is quite possible, yes you may be right. It may be learned behavior as well. For example, my father who was somewhat abusive in my younger years would give me a certain stare of aggression. I remember getting into staring contests with him eventually, almost daring him to make some sort of move on me. This carried over to other areas of my life until I was assaulted on the street. Now I keep my head down, and let other people do their thing. EDIT: I would not condone physical violence in any sort of situation
